Why is architecture necessary?
FIRST SIGNS OF ARCHITECTURE
Humans have a need for shelter.
During the Stone Age(300,000 BC) or
PaleolithicEra, dwellings were
madefrom stakes pushed into the ground

FIRST SIGNS OF ARCHITECTURE
In the Mesolithic Era(15,000-10,000 BC), humans
begandraping animal hides over
bones andstakes.What does this tell you abouthumans?
Man hunted animals not only to
create food but also to create shelter.
Mankind was nomadic based on its dependency on
animals and wild cereal for food.

humans relied less on hunting and gathering and
more on Agriculture: the domestication of
animals and growing of crops.
Architecture also became necessary because

thefirst established
cities.
Humans became less nomadic during the

What was the purpose of these buildings?

Stone
EARLY ARCHITECTURE
Stone was the material most readily available at the time.

MEDIEVAL TIMESTwo events during Medieval Times affected
Architecture as we know it today.
• The bubonic plague:epidemic spread by
rats• King Henry VIII
beingexcommunicated from
thechurch: the split of
churchand state
Cathedral of Notre Dame

What were these events?

We begin to see more of an emphasis on the individual. People began to rely on Rationalism:
Belief that truth is discovered through reason and logic
Studying nature to create laws governing human behavior
How did King Henry VIII beingexcommunicated from the Church and
theBubonic Plague affect Architecture?

The Industrial Revolution began in England. People began working for a profit. The major change during this time was innovation in materials:
Iron and Glass: cheaper than stone
Builders used their newly found belief in logic and reason to deduce that they could construct buildings with lighter yet stronger materials.

theBubonic Plague affect Architecture?
